In my kindergarten classroom I have a set of predetermined consequences for my students when they do not follow directions. The first time I give a warning, the second time they sit in time out, the third time they miss their recess and the fourth time is a note home to parents. I am consistant in implementing these consequences to 20 of my 23 students. However, I have three "difficult" young men with whom I am not consistent with the consequences. I generally give these students several warnings before time out, and then several more before loss of recess and notes home to parents. The reason I do this is because I feel that these students would be getting written up everyday if I followed the same procedures I do for the other classmates. I feel that they just have a harder time controlling their actions and that they need extra reminders. Is what I am doing ok, or should I treat these boys the same as everyone else?

These programmes are supposed to help children who have learning difficulties. Has anyone used either of these programmes and/or can identify the key differences between them?

There was a time when i thought education was important for all kids but as this feud goes on between the assistants and education board my thoughts are now different, i think the assistants dont get paid enough for their work, i have a child who is autistic and needs her assistant, without is no question of it working, do our children have to suffer at the hands of thoughtless people. and no matter how parents and carers intervene it dosent matter it is fallen on deaf ears.

Hello,

I am a teacher assistant who works with a child who has speech delay. The special ed. coordinator gave me a list of the goals and what needs to improve and that is it. Whose responsibility is it to find the materials needed to help this child learn speech? Is it my job as a teacher assistant to find the materials and program what materials to use on specific days? Or is it up to the teacher to do this? Right now I am the one organizing the activities for this child to increase his speech knowledge.

I am highly overwhelmed with my classroom. 20 students, 14 on IEP. (of those 14 it breaks down like this-4 autistic, 1 ED, 4 CD that had previously been in resource rooms, 5 SLD) I co- teach for a lot of it so she helps save me but I can't even get them to keep a desk clean for 2 days, let alone teach 6 gr. standards. I'm in a charter school - I know a lot of public schools have a "cap" but that it is union negotiated and in a charter, we do not have a union.

My son was diagnosed with morning glory syndrome and that to the eye doctors considers him legally blind. He is 6 months old for goodness sake and his teachers believe he should start in normal classes. Dont get me wrong I know he has a disability but I dont want him to be bunched with children who have down syndrome because he is not on that level.

When he starts regular school in 2 years I believe he should start regular classes rather than being taught as if he has downs syndome. He is a little boy with vision problems not mental problems.

WHAT SHOULD I DO?

His teachers believe these classes are not necessary because his vision is improving

help my daughter realize her dream of becoming a jewelry designer. When the school keeps telling her she cant. She is in special ed, because of a learning disability and a mental disorder. Well every year they go to the career fair held at the college, except her class. The teacher came out and told the students that since they are in special ed, that they weren't going because there was no point, if they were never going to work anyway.
